FC America's Omni U-15 Boys Win the Florida State League Division 1 Championship
April 10, 2010 ... The FC America Omni U-15 began their first year playing in the Florida State League in Division II. After successfully finishing league play in the fall as the D2 champions, they went on to secure a spot in the Division I playoffs during the relegation rounds.
Wins over Ponte Vedra and Bellview lead the Omni team into the playoffs,
where they started with decisive wins over First Coast KYX and Florida
Rush. The U-15's cruised into the finals against Jacksonville Fury
outscoring their opponents 15-5 in relegation and playoff rounds. FCA
went up against Jacksonville Fury in a tight and physical game. The late
start and long drive to Jacksonville may have only helped steel their
determination. After a quick goal in the first few minutes of the game
to have Omni down 0-1, the team was able to refocus and even the
scoreline (1-1) after a Nascimento free kick about 25 yards from goal.
Fifteen minutes into the second half, FC America's pressure was too much
for the Fury to handle, and a Jordan Ocampo strike brought the scoreline
to 2-1. While The Fury would try to rally, Omni held on strong for their
second trophy of the year as Florida State League Division I Champions. |
